Method

Preparation

1

Whisk the Eggs

In a mixing bowl, crack the eggs and add the milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk the mixture until it’s well combined and frothy.

2

Chop the Chives

Finely chop the fresh chives and set aside for garnishing the omelet later.

Cooking

3

Heat the Pan

In a non-stick skillet, melt the butter over medium heat until it starts to bubble but not brown.

4

Pour the Egg Mixture

Pour the whisked egg mixture into the skillet, tilting the pan to distribute the eggs evenly across the surface.

5

Cook the Omelet

Allow the eggs to cook undisturbed for about 2-3 minutes until the edges start to set. You can gently lift the edges with a spatula to allow uncooked egg to flow underneath.

6

Add the Cheese

Once the eggs are mostly set but still slightly runny on top, sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over half of the omelet.

7

Fold the Omelet

Using a spatula, carefully fold the omelet in half over the cheese. Cook for another minute until the cheese melts.

8

Serve

Slide the omelet onto a plate, sprinkle with chopped chives, and serve immediately.
